How do you get to the city-core?

For the most part, we either drive to Downtown Toronto or take rail (TTC Subway, GO Train, and the TTC Streetcar). The opposition for having buses in the city core is that most believe that 40 feet vehicle would add to the already congested core and reduce business and development along its route.

This is not the case, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) has been proven to provide quality-uninterrupted service along its path. It has the ability to increase pedestrian traffic, reduce congestion, and introduce and increase transit orientated development.

Although, we are not currently seeing any type of BRT construction in larger cities, they are predominant in suburban spaces through the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Mississauga, Brampton, and Vaughn all have BRT routes. With the case of the VivaNext line along Highway 7, there is a number amount of development and investment projects taking place due to the expected traffic.
